Paint & Flooring

Our visit today was pretty exciting. All the walls have been painted and the vinyl and tile flooring are in place. Everything is still right on track! The cabinets were in our living room, ready to be installed in the kitchen and bathrooms, ready to be installed Monday. The laminate countertops were also on site which will also be installed this coming week. The granite countertop should also be installed then too. We look forward to seeing those!

Tiny update

We stopped by the new house on Friday after work. Since we had been by earlier in the week we knew not much would have changed. The doors were locked, so we couldn't get inside. We don't know if it's because the parade of homes is going on, or if they just wanted to start protecting the interior. Anyway, we took this shot through the window, and it looks like things are moving along right on track. It looks like all the molding is done and the walls are prepped to paint.

Speaking of paint, that's supposed to be done this next week and the vinyl flooring should be in place as well. The walls will only be painted white, so we will be painting the walls with color (with some help). So look forward to seeing some updates on that after we close!

Suprise Update



We swung by our new place on our way into town today, and were pleasently surprised. The sheetrocking was 95% completed (the garge sheetrock just needs to be mudded) and is ahead of schedule! They've also started on finishing up the exterior. We plan to go back up Friday or Saturday (which was our original plan) to see what's done. They should have the trim work finished, so we'll see!

Housing Update

The framing is officially complete! We went over on Thursday to check in on the progress. The windows are in, and they just finished installing the HVAC, tubs, showers, wiring, and all that good stuff:







As you can see, things are coming along nicely. According to the construction schedule, things should be moving along very quickly over the next month. Insulation, sheet rock, flooring, cabinets, counter tops, paint, and then that's it! Moving time!

As Tennille mentioned earlier, our closing date has move up to Sept. 10th. Our mortgage is officially cleared for closing, so we're getting very excited and realizing how quickly this is coming up! We're finally going to get packing, too!

It looks like we've never posted what our street will look like (for now... There's still the rest of the development to get built, so the neighborhood probably won't be completely finished for a few years.):
